Many of my lovely clients first came to me without any knowledge or understanding of our energy centres/chakras but they just knew that they didn't feel right and needed realigning and healing, which is so beautiful as it means even without the knowledge they listened to the inner voice within, the heart! This resulted in the Universe bringing us together at the perfect time as it always does So, I thought it would be good to give a little insight for those interested.

The word ‘Chakra’ comes from the sanskrit word meaning ‘Wheel' as a Chakra is basically like a spinning vortex of energy within our bodies! We have 7 major chakras which run from the base of our spine to the top of our head and we also have many more minor ones.. Our chakra's can be open, closed, strong, weak, under-active or even over-active, which causes imbalance and means our energy system can not flow freely which can then effect us mentally, physically and emotionally. A constant state of balance between our chakras would equal health and a general sense of well-being and positivity. So you can imagine how it feels when some are closed or imbalanced, you would likely feel of being out of sorts in certain areas of your being or low in energy. This is why spiritual healing practises like Reiki, Energy healing and Crystal healing are important as they bring our energy system back into a natural balance which can have profound positive affects upon us and our subtle bodies. It literally allows our natural healing process to take place within so we can feel our optimum.
